Pumpkin Crisp Plus Lower Fat Variations

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:02:03 -0500

This is my husband's favorite dessert. We got the recipe from his uncle Larry. I have made it for may family and it has been requested that I bring it to Thanksgiving again this year. I also made it for a BBQ this summer, and a friend who came to the BBQ asked for the recipe so she could make it for Thanksgiving. It's great anytime, but its a must in my house for Thanksgiving. -- posted by Jennifer Bennifer

Fresh Cranberry Pecan Salad

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:08:06 -0500

This salad is my daughter and mother's favorite Thanksgiving recipe. I used to make it every year for the teachers at my children's school--they RAVED over it. After Thanksgiving, I like to have it as a snack over plain yogurt. It is absolutely to die for! -- posted by Chef #738454

Maple Leaf Sugar Cookies

Perfect for Fall. Cookies to make between Halloween and Thanksgiving. I use my Maple Leaf cookie cutters, and even make a few with my Oak Leaf cutter. I believe the secret to this recipe is to use pure maple syrup. I count chilling time in with the prep time. -- posted by Sweetiebarbara

Moist Pumpkin Spice Bread

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:14:34 -0500

This may be the most delicious pumpkin bread recipe I've ever baked. I came up with this for my brother's 18th birthday and it has been devoured in just two days. I believe the applesauce in the recipe is what makes it so ooey-gooey moist. It's also low in fat as the applesauce replaces the oil that would normally be used. The recipe makes two loaves, one of which can be frozen or given to a friend. -- posted by EntirelyEmily

Thanksgiving Pumpkin Blondies

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:15:40 -0500

From The Best 50 collection of cookbooks. This is straight out of the Brownies and Blondies edition. A little of this goes a LONG way! Not really a blondie by my standards, but it passes off as an interesting bar-type dessert. PLEASE NOTE: Because most people are not really used to tasting molasses, it may take a few bites to fall in love with this recipe. I did not like it at all when I first tried it. But, after giving it a second bite, I found I can't get enough of it. This seemed to happen with EVERYONE who tried it. So, please, before giving an unhappy review, try it again. If you find that the molasses is just too much to handle, try cutting the topping ingredients in half. It really does make a lot of topping as it is. I hope you enjoy this! -- posted by the_cookie_lady

Mom's Hot Buttered Rum

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 16:42:05 -0500

A delicious, simple drink for a cold night that will warm you right up from your nose to your toes! Prep time is just estimated time to make the mix. The number of servings will vary, depending on just how heaping your tablespoons are, but you should get close to 100 servings from a full batch, which is approximately 12 cups of mix. I've estimated from 100-150 servings, based on using anywhere from 1 1/4 Tbsp per serving to nearly 2 Tbsp per serving. The recipe can be easily scaled back to make less--it's pretty forgiving. Please note that the nutritional information is not entirely accurate, as it divides the single serving of rum into 100 servings, which means it really has a few more calories than shown. -- posted by Halcyon Eve

My mom got this recipe from a card at the grocery store about 15 years ago and it's become a family favorite! I've tweaked it a little to make it my own. These are great fresh but are out of this world if allowed to "age" for a week to ten days in a container at room temperature. The original recipe called for ground almonds but I toast my own for better flavour. Yield is approximate. Prep time includes decorating time. -- posted by andrea185

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 01:11:30 -0500

A Craig Claiborne classic from The New York Times. One just can't do any better than this one. Cook time is chill time for the alcohol to remove any raw egg taste.

Please note that most of the prep time is slicing your cranberries! If you have a food processor, it definitely helps. -- posted by Rhapsodies

1200 Watt Microwave Peanut Brittle

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 16:49:17 -0500

Bravo to Love2Eats Peanut Brittle in a Jiffy #58383 - it got me started, but with the adjustments for my higher powered microwave and some flavor changes I thought I should write my own recipe. I can not say how much Love2Eats note about having everything measured out and ready to go was a life saver. I use an 8 cup pyrex measuring bowl with a handle as this mixture bubbles up and gets very hot (bowl gets very hot too) - it is MOLTEN SUGAR- if your work area is not right next to your sink - have a bowl of ice water in case of burns. THIS RECIPE IS FOR A 1200 WATT MICROWAVE. Oh yeah, I sorta faked it on how many this will serve - it is habit forming. -- posted by Sandy in Dayton

Chunky Nut and Dried Fruitcake

Tue, 22 Dec 2009 12:16:43 -0500

No candied fruits! I made a similar fruitcake last year and was anxious to make it again as it was delicious. It has just enough batter to hold all the luscious ingredients together. I searched everywhere and finally found this which is really close. I use a silicone tube pan. I've fallen in love with the silicone bakeware. Recipes never stick! This came originally from the Better Homes and Gardens Annual Recipes, 2008. I substituted butter for the shortening to avoid trans fats, and walnuts for Brazil nuts for taste. Last year I bought the bags of dried blueberries and cherries separately...a little pricey. But this year I found a mixed bag of dried berries at Costco. It had just enough and a little more of each. -- posted by Gigi #23

Pumpkin Biscotti With White Chocolate

Wed, 30 Dec 2009 02:10:26 -0500

I included them on my Christmas cookie platters this year, and everyone made a point of telling me how good they were. I found the recipe on the web. The raisins were my idea. Dried cranberries would be as good, if not much, much better. Or leave them out completely. Both light and dark brown sugar work beautifully, although I think I like the dark brown sugar version just a tiny tad more. I used good-quality white chocolate chips mixed with about 1/2 teaspoon of shortening for the drizzle. And if you can, use freshly ground nutmeg. Also, you can use up to 3/4 cup raisins or dried cranberries. Any way you try it, I think you'll love them. (Time does not include chilling time.) -- posted by Charmed

Pizza Frita

Wed, 30 Dec 2009 02:15:20 -0500

This has long been a family tradition as an appetizer during the holidays. It's not the most healthy of foods, but is healthier than many other fried dough recipes out there since it's quick fried, and soaks up a lot less of the oil it's fried in. This is a recipe that's always a pleaser, and quite tasty when dipped in some sugar, or even by itself. The anchovy paste variant is my favorite. It doesn't taste like anchovy at all - instead it has a quite pleasant flavor, and almost omits the need for sugar dipping the finished product. -- posted by Obsidian468

This is the chili recipe that I grew up with that was passed down from my Granny, to my mom, to me! I absolutely adore it, even if it's not a purist's idea of chili. Yes, there is canned Chili in the recipe, but it's still delicious and super easy. It makes plenty to freeze and reheat whenever you don't feel like making dinner! -- posted by Sara Bates

Chocolate Christmas Trees

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 19:11:27 -0500

Something I want to try next Christmas. These are little decorative (and edible) trees that can be stuck into cupcakes, cakes, or whatever you like. If you don't want to use toothpicks, the trees can be laid flat rather than standing up. I guessed at the number of servings. -- posted by *Kathy*

Spiced Pumpkin Butter

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 22:47:17 -0500

Pumpkin butter is one of fall's great all-purpose spreads. Spice up breakfast by using it on pancakes and muffins. For a quick appetizer, spread pumpkin butter on toasted bread with slices of your favorite cheese. Experiment with different flavors; add a dash of cayenne pepper or a drizzle of honey. Each serving is 2 tablespoons. I found this recipe in Better Homes and Garden magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping. -- posted by internetnut

A tasty chili with south-of-the-border influences. It contains beef, pork, and lamb. Some ingredients are quite surprising and bring further depths of flavor that widen the palette! -- posted by Chef #1543839

A favorite fall treat that graces our Holiday tables. A favorite of my husband but then all my deserts are! Frequently requested by my coworkers and KYX retreaters. Has much the taste of pumpkin pie but can serve so many more people. A very moist cake. -- posted by Goat mom
